This App is AMAZING! I started the programme back in November and suffered a few setbacks along the way, mainly Achilles' tendon problems. Went to a sports physio and asked her to tell me straight if she thought I was too old and should give up the idea of running. She was incredibly reassuring, showed me exercises to do daily (still doing them 4 months later!) and recommended some massage and laser treatment. Didn't feel very confident but persevered and here I am! Managed to run 4.2km in 30 minutes so next target is to manage that 5km. Bring it on! 😊😊😊
